Bio
L Bucago
Alex was a great intern. He fit right in with our teams, was a hard worker, and got most assignments done faster than expected and always on time. He was constantly keeping me up to date, especially when he was ready for more assignments. Alex learned a lot during his internship with us, and I would love to have him back.
